glimepiride solid dispersion

My new doctor changed my prescriptions from regular Met to Met XR and added 2mg of Glimepiride. My BG's have been above 300 for last few months and nothing seems to get them down. Doc thinks this change should do it. I've only taken it twice now but since taking it I've been dizzy. Quite enough I need to lay down. I know it says this may be a side affect but does it go away? It brought my BG's down as I said from over 300 3 hrs after eating to 180 just now.

Also, even in those cases where QT dispersion is abnormal, its clinical usefulness is limited. However, a QT dispersion of 34 seconds is still well within normal range and an increase within normal ranges is not concerning. Finally, left ventricular hypertrophy is a diagnosis made by imaging (like echocardiogram, ventriculogram, CT scan, cardiac MRI). ECG is a screening tool for LVH, but false positives are not uncommon for LVH.

Can whip-blast cause pigment dispersion syndrome? I have worn glasses for 16 years, however My sight has been roughly the same. Every few years the optometrist makes a slight change. This year however, my eye sight not only jumped in change, I was also diagnosed with pigment dispersion syndrome. I was a super heathy female in my 30's going to the gym everyday for over 2 years, eating right and was in a great mental state. Until a horrible accident.

the drug glimepiride, is not making my blood sugar level lower; instead is higher 250! I am taking 2mg twice a day. My doctor says all is OK.

He takes 2 tablets Glycomet Trio 1 (Metformin HCL Sustained Release, Glimepiride & Voglibose Tablets) - 1 before taking lunch and before taking dinner.

ve been through all the eye visual exams and everything came out negative for my unusual eye sympthoms except for the fact that I do have Pigment Dispersion Syndrome and Mild Cataract. The problem is still persisting that whenever I tend to read something, shadows appear bellow the words and letters become distorted but quickly fix themselves. I'm not sure what's going on with my vision and I'm wondering if the formation of cataract can do this?

After this happened a couple of times I quit taking the Metformin. About a year later I was then diagnosed with T2 and am now on Glimepiride and have since began having these episodes again. They begin in the jaw area primarily the glands just below my jaws, with a sting/tingling that intensifies and radiates out all around my ears, neck throat and surface of my chest, and my upper torso goes ice cold. This takes place any where from a 30 second to a 3 minute cycle.

I was diagnosed with pigment dispersion syndrome 20 years ago and have ocular hypertension on and off. I have had macular bleeds in the past but none for a while. No one seems to know much about it and I don't know anyone else who has been diagnosed with it. Is there anyone who can enlighten me who has it or knows a lot about it?

The main concern I would have about the addition to Lantus 20 units daily would be the risk of low blood sugar, especially in combination with glimepiride. Both Lantus and glimepiride can cause low blood sugar or hypoglycemia. Just make sure you're watching for the signs of low blood sugar, which are, sudden headache, feeling shaky, and weakness. There are many more signs of hypoglycemia and I encourage you to research it more yourself.

I have been taking Latanaprost and then Monopost for the last five years for mildly elevated eye pressure due to Pigment Dispersion syndrome..I had visual field test and OCT recently all good in normal range . ..I went to an Opthalmologist for a consultation to get the SLT done but he refused to carry out the procedure because of the fear of IOP spike and told it would be risky because of my Pigment Dispersion Syndrome but I believe my PDS is table now as I had it for a few years...

Please do not put off calling your doc today. I looked up Amaryl (glimepiride) and it is used by type 2 diabetics to lower glucose levels. There's a discussion going on in this forum about type 2, after long periods of time (how long is unk), reversing into type 1 diabetics. In your case it seems you are combating low glucose levels and may have a flipped 180º. Let us know what your docs says. You will help a lot of readers by posting your history if you did turn into a type 1.

Pigment dispersion syndrome can cause glaucoma with elevated intraocular pressure and optic nerve cupping and damage. You would not expect damage to the optic nerve in pigment dispersion syndrome unless there was evidence of elevated pressure at least at some point in time. Just speaking in general terms. Now regarding the questionably pale optic nerve - it might have been better for the doctor to say nothing rather that leave this huge open ended situation.

You should be checked carefully with gonioscopy for pigment dispersion glaucoma which is more common in young nearsighted patients. Make sure you are seeing a glaucoma specialist for this as your case is a bit more complicated than average given your younger age, myopia, peripheral vision loss, and normal eye pressures. I would definitely have a subspecialist look at your eyes.

org/eyenet/article/dx-tx-of-pigment-dispersion-syndrome-pigmentary-gl The chances of going blind are extremely small if you see an ophthalmologist at least yearly to see if you are in the 35%. While PDS is somewhat more difficult to treat than ordinary glaucoma it is still treatable.

The implants caused significant pigment dispersion which completely resolved following explantation so I still do not understand why the pressures remain elevated. I have asked two glaucoma specialists about the change in IOP but get the response that my pressures aren't high and don't worry about it. I do worry about it and would like to at least have some theoretical reasons as to what may have happened. Maybe then I could ask more pointed questions.

One doctor has said that mfr recently made changes to reduce glistenings - is there validation or proof of improvement that I can read? Does Tecnis monofocal lens have less of a tendency to develop potential causes of dispersion?

One possibility that comes to mind is a condition called pigment dispersion syndrome. You do need to ask your doctor WHY he thinks you already have glaucoma. Nearsightedness is not a risk factor for open angle glaucoma, and travatan does not affect pupil size. Ask around in your family (even cousins) for a history of early-onset glaucoma.

My Vent Rate was 89 bpm RR Interval was 670 ms PR interval 178 ms QRS Duration 84 ms QT Interval 346 ms QTC interval 396 ms QT Dispersion 18 ms P Axis 29 deg QRS Axis 17 deg T Axis 0

How are you doing with monitoring your diet? Do you get regular exercise and drink plenty of water? Sometimes the medications that are helpful and keep things under control for a while, stop working or just need adjusted.

Clonidine, Glimepiride, Byetta, Metformin, Amlodipine, Crestor, and Losartan HCT. Is it possible that it could be these meds? Please help!! I'm working by tail off and still have a GUT. Thank you in advance.

I currently take glimepiride 4mg twice daily and actos 15mg once daily. What is the sucess of these two meds. I continue to have high blood sugar levels.

Hi Doctor, My wife has consulted the doctor as advised by you and he has prescribed Cetapin 1000 mg 1-0-1 (metformin) along with Glimy-4(Glimepiride)1-0-0-. Hope this is OK.
